At 97:55:07, LMP talks briefly to Houston about taking decongestants. At the planned wake-up time, Houston plays "Reveille". When the CapCom tells them to "Today's the big day; hit the deck", the CDR says, "We've been there for a while." |

LM calls Houston.
They've
been up quite a while so that Al Bean could re-lace
Pete Conrad's boots
to give him some extra leg length and eliminate the
pain he's been
experiencing because the suit was too short and
digging into his
shoulders. Pete is eager to get outside for
EVA-2. See a discussion at 128:51:00
in the Apollo 12 LSJ. |

The crew was still
"cleaning up"
at 152:04, after transferring dirty astronauts, rock
boxes, etc to
orbit. Houston makes the wake-up call, but the
crew was already
awake |
